Reminder: Drag Week 2014 Registration Opens Saturday, April 26!

You better be sitting by the computer or you’re going to miss it! Consider this your reminder: HOT ROD Drag Week 2014 registration opens Saturday, April 26 at 9:00 am Pacific time. Look for the registration link to go live here on the HOTROD.com blog at that time. The event is limited to 260 entries, and last year we sold out in 8 hours, so you need to be here if you want to get in. We’ve had a number of guys beg us to save spots, and that’s not happening. First come, first served. But there are some details you need to check out below.

Assuming entires don’t sell out sooner, you can preregister online by Tuesday, September 2, 2014, for $280 plus a $10 handling fee. It’s possible to register onsite at Drag Week on Sunday, September 7th, at Tulsa Raceway Park—but only if entries are not sold out by the time registration has closed . If entries are available at that time, they will be $310 plus a $10 processing fee if paying by credit card.

Drag Week registration is nontransferable and nonrefundable. You can’t register yourself and then sell or give your entry to anyone else. It will not be honored.

Legal drivers 16 or 17 years old can race at Drag Week, though a parent or legal guardian must do the registration, use their credit card for the transaction, list their child’s name as the driver, and state the child’s date of birth. At the event, a custodial parent or legal guardian must be in attendance during registration and for the duration of Hot Rod Drag Week. Both the custodial parent and child will be required to appear in person during tech and registration to sign the releases and waivers.

Last week we emailed 2013’s top three finishers in each class and gave them a chance to register early so they can come defend their titles. As of this writing, 29 of ’em have signed up. That leaves 231 slots. Will you get one of them on Saturday morning?
